The goal us more atomization, not less.

Some good points in it. Nothing new, but well said.

>> No.9604687

So basically, the only true thing that wounds atomization is blind loyalty to an institution?

Idk, his conclusion fell into that overly abstract sort of thinking divorced from cause and effect. He seems to believe that attempts to end atomization are actually conducive to it for the reason that they rely implicitly on individualism. But the only thing that matters, from the point of view of a carlyle for instance, is attaining a sound hierarchical culture. Our present atomization was possible only in the context of its opposite.

Was a very good essay up to that

One may wish to secede from an institution despite its hierarchical nature, no?

>tfw Jacobite might actually take off as a magazine

Would be kind of cool, considering they had a thread here at one point. They need more Catholics, though, with a name like theirs.

It's not a Land thread, it's a jacobite spam thread.

This, basically. Modern capital begins with Protestant defection and just keeps running from there. Beyond a certain horizon defecting on defection only produces more defection

>until AI-demiurge Capital wakes up and realizes that it always-already owns the habitrail humanitas database, and that we have fed it with our collective planetary Google browser-search history, containing all of our unconscious and unspoken and formerly-believed-to-be private wishes and fantasies, which it downloads to itself in a millisecond and says to itself Ah Yes Humanity My Progenitor I Got This Now

There's an Asimov story about this too of course.
